Open orrery opened 3 years ago

Note that until this step, the install was proceeding without issue.

Installing nsd (DNS server)...

The NSD install step results in the /etc/resolv.conf being overwritten, resulting in loss of network connectivity and subsequent package installation fail as a result.

Ubuntu version:

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
Release:    18.04
Codename:   bionic

A network connection from the host was present. the NSD install breaks this. Ubuntu 18.04 was installed onva dedicated box behind a security gateway, all requisite ports were open at the time of install. Note that Ubuntu 18.04 was installed with DHCP enabled.

I can also verify this is still a problem, it appears resolve.conf nameserver is set to 127.0.0.1, nsd is not setup so DNS fails

NotExift commented 3 years ago

I too have also run into this issue, has there been any fix?

Still a problem in 2022.

Update:

Figured out it was the OVH VPS firewall that was causing the issues. After disabling it, everything is working now.

I confirm, I have the same problem on a vps.

tasmo commented 1 year ago

Hello, I have found a solution that worked for me, the source is https://discourse.mailinabox.email/t/installer-breaks-dns-and-fails-on-name-resolution/9249/30

Apparently, when you install mail in a box in a container, there is a problem with BIND.

So my container is running Ubuntu 22.04

  1. Install bind before install Mail-on-a-box: sudo apt install bind9 bind9utils bind9-doc
  2. Edit the file /etc/bind/named.conf.options, the key "dnssec-validation" from auto to yes

Aflter that, you can make de installation with no problems. Your Mail-in-a-Box is running.

Im running Mail-in-a-Box Version: v61.1
